Abstract:
A scanning optical system that can be made compact and can provide a sufficiently small beam diameter on a surface to be scanned is provided. In a scanning optical system including a galvanometer mirror that reflects and deflects a light beam emitted from a light source and a fθ lens that focuses the deflected light beam on a surface to be scanned, the fθ lens includes, in order from the galvanometer mirror side, a first lens which is a spherical lens having a positive refractive power, a second lens which is a spherical lens having a negative refractive power, and a third lens which is a spherical lens having a positive refractive power. The fθ lens satisfies conditional expression (1) below: 1.542≦f/f1≦7.828 (1), where f is a focal length of the entire fθ lens system, and f1 is a focal length of the first lens.
Abstract:
When tissue elasticity of a subject is measured, an ultrasound diagnostic apparatus sets a sound velocity for each of segment regions established by dividing the subject, processes reception signals output by a piezoelectric element array based on the set sound velocities, and performs tissue elasticity measurement based on the reception signals processed based on the set sound velocities. Owing to this configuration, when tissue elasticity of a subject is measured, the ultrasound diagnostic apparatus prevents the accuracy of tissue elasticity measurement from deteriorating due to image distortions.
Abstract:
With respect to two images of an image for a right eye and an image for a left eye constituting a stereoscopic image, and which have been obtained at a mammography apparatus, a computer sets one of the two images, as a main image, and the remaining image as a sub-image. Further, a password releasable exclusively by an image reproducing terminal that copes with reproduction of a stereoscopic image file is set for the sub-image, and the two images are stored in a stereoscopic image file.
Abstract:
A self-propelling device includes a drive unit and a toroid unit supported thereabout. The toroid unit includes a track structure of a toroid shape and a roller support sleeve inside the track structure. Three belt portions are provided in the track structure with high rigidity. The drive unit includes an inner sleeve for mounting on an introducer of an endoscope, and an outer sleeve supported around the inner sleeve. An inner surface of the roller support sleeve and an outer surface of the outer sleeve extend triangularly. Drive wheels are disposed upstream and downstream of respectively flat portions of the outer sleeve. Two follower rollers are disposed on respectively each of flat portions of the roller support sleeve. The drive wheels and follower rollers nip the belt portions of the track structure to move the track structure endlessly.
Abstract:
A radiation detector for detecting irradiated radiation that includes: a converting layer for converting radiation irradiated from a radiation source capable of irradiating radiation from two imaging directions, which are different from each other, into electric charges; and a plurality of pixel electrodes for collecting the converted charges. In the radiation detector, when at least one of the two imaging directions forms a specified angle θ with respect to the direction that is orthogonal to the detector plane of the radiation detector, the thickness d of the converting layer and the sizes p of the pixel electrodes satisfy the condition: d·tan θ
Abstract:
Generating a right-eye image by combining a right-side capturing image (4° capturing image) of a right breast with a left-side capturing image (0° capturing image) of a left breast rotated by 180° such that the chest walls of the breasts face to each other and a left-eye image by combining a left-side capturing image (0° capturing image) of the right breast with a right-side capturing image (4° capturing image) of the left breast rotated by 180° such that the chest walls of the breasts face to each other. Based on the right-eye and left-eye images generated in the manner described above, displaying a stereoscopic image on a monitor.
Abstract:
In a radiation detector (60), pixels with sensor portions (72) that generate electrical charges when irradiated with radiation or light converted from radiation are plurally arrayed two-dimensionally in an imaging region that captures a radiation image, and the radiation detector (60) outputs the electrical charges accumulated in the pixels as electrical signals. A radiation detection section (62), in which sensor portions (146) capable of detecting the radiation or light to which radiation is converted are plurally provided, is provided layered over the imaging region of the radiation detector (60). Thus, a radiation image capture device and radiation image capture system capable of detecting radiation within an imaging region without complicating the structure of an imaging section that captures radiation images are provided.
Abstract:
A humidity state at a distal end portion of an endoscope internal space can be reliably estimated without enlarging the diameter of an endoscope insertion part.In a humidity detecting device detecting humidity of an internal space of an endoscope, leakage currents of an imaging device and a peripheral circuit of an electric board disposed at a distal end portion of the internal space of the endoscope are detected and a humidity state of the internal space of the endoscope is determined based upon the detected leakage currents.
